A Shopping Trip To Camping World

Absolutely nothing happened here in the parking lot at Creative Coach yesterday, but Jim and Linda had a busy afternoon.

"What did they do", you ask?

Well, Saturday morning when Jim dumped my tanks, he had some leaks at the sewer hose connections. And, after further inspection he found that the little rubber seals in the hose ends were getting bad. So,...... being that there was nothing going on here, he and Linda decided to take CLT and head down to the Camping World store in Seffner, FL. and buy some new hose ends.

It's only about 30 miles from here to Seffner, so it was a nice drive down there with moderate traffic on I-4. Once there, they found the hose connectors they needed, a couple of replacement water filters, (they were on sale, so Jim bought 2 of them), and a set of those snap-in screens for my ceiling vent fans, so Jim doesn't have to remove all those little screws every time the screens and fans need cleaning.

Then after wandering around in the store, and determining that there wasn't anything else that they couldn't live without, they headed back here. On the way, they got talking about a stopping for bread and milk somewhere, and decided that it would be best to stop at a grocery store as they needed a few other things that they wouldn't be able to find at a convenience store.

So, when they got back here to Lakeland, they stopped at a Publix store and bought what they needed.

It was about 3:00 by the time they returned, and by the time they had everything put away, Jim and Linda were both ready for naps. ;-)

For dinner, Linda heated up some chicken that she had bought at the grocery store deli, put together some salads, and got out some chips. Then it was TV again until bedtime.

Not a real exciting day, but at least Jim and Linda got out of here for awhile.

Did you know that it was on this date in 1963 that John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States, was assassinated while traveling through Dallas, Texas, in an open-top convertible?

Do you remember what you were doing when you heard the news? Both Jim and Linda said that they remember exactly where they were and what they were doing at the time.
